John was born in Chicago where he grew up with his 3 brothers and sister. That is also where he met the love of his life Ruth. After John and Ruth had their 3 children: Ashley, John Jr. and Brittany, they decided to take the plunge and follow lifelong friends, John and Julie to Arizona. John later followed in his dad’s footsteps and had a successful Painting & Contracting business. He had many passions, including singing, listening to a variety of music, telling jokes and being the life of the party. John had the most generous heart. He would give the shirt off his back without hesitation, loved lending a helping hand, donating to worthy causes and sharing with others that Jesus is his savior. We know that he will be looking over his family with love and he will never truly be gone.
